Pre-Authorized Withdrawal Services

Property Tax - Pre-Authorized Withdrawal

Starts in August and ends in May (you can sign up at anytime of the year but you will have less monthly payments towards the next tax year)

you decide how much is withdrawn (we can help with an estimate)

Interest is earned on any credits on the account. It is itemized on the Tax Notice as "Interest Earned" and subtracted from the final total outstanding.

The total prepayments will be itemized on your Tax Notice on the line "Prepayments/Adjustments" and subtracted from the final total outstanding. No monthly receipts will be sent to you.

Features (you can choose what features you want or not):

Automatic Recalculation: Your monthly payments will automatically change for the next tax year based on the taxesfor the current year plus a 3.25% increase minus a home owner grant (if eligible). On your tax notice, in bold print, it will say for example: Your payments are changing from $150.00 to $165.00 effective Aug 5, 2019.

Tax Due Date Withdrawal: On the day taxes are due, we will withdraw the amount owing in the column you have designated for us to pay. On your Tax Notice, it will say for example: The final payment of $1250.00 will be withdrawn from your account on July 2, 2019.

You are responsible for any outstanding balance left (if you don't sign up for the Tax Due Date Withdrawal)

Over-payments are non-refundable and will go towards the next years taxes

The program will continue each year until a cancellation form is submitted
